Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.9 over 41 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
12 of 24 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.49 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.78.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 57 matches (0.49 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 50 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.44 for the level played (State competition 4 · 1st grade 3 · Rep Div 1 6 · Club 44). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 26 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 57 matches — 0.49 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 6.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 47 wickets in 55 matches bowled in (of 57 played) — 0.85 per match at 15.5, economy 3.78, strike rate 24.7.
